3. Prove You Want Them To Succeed - Any business opportunity will "say" they want their signups to succeed. But very few of them actually prove it. Give your signups more than other guy gives.

You might consider offering counselors or mentors to help them during first few months. Perhaps you can open a discussion board or forum where newbies can chat with old pros. Go above and beyond to show you will stand behind your signups.

4. Offer Support - In addition to proving you want your signups to succeed, give them support they need. Sending a periodic newsletter with helpful information is a good idea. Forwarding articles or information you found on 'Net is another way to be helpful.

Create a "new signup" package that goes out immediately. Fill it with everything you can think of to help your people succeed... testimonials, best practices, resources, dos and don'ts, advice from others, your own email address so they can contact you. You get idea. After all, when they succeed, YOU succeed.

5. Encourage Comments - As new people go through your system, they are likely to have ideas on what works and what doesn't. Listen and always encourage comments and ideas! Not only will encouraging comments help your new recruits feel like part of team, it can also offer you exceptional insights into how to grow and improve your biz op. People are tired of scams. They want "real" business opportunities that actually work. If you structure your biz op so that its primary focus is helping new signups to succeed, you will grow your reputation, your scope of business, your territory, and your profits.

The one question I love is: “Can you guarantee I will succeed?” NO! I CAN’T, ONLY YOU CAN DECIDE THAT. In all honesty, if you ask that question, you probably never will. You will never move forward to make a decision, hence “paralysis by analysis”. You will keep spinning your wheels in one fashion or another and never get anywhere. You will stay in same place rest of your life, and continue to moan and groan about it. In addition to blaming everyone but yourself for not moving forward.

So if you see yourself in above, realize what you are doing, and either move forward and do something or stop wasting everyone’s time, including your own, and resign yourself to life you have. Remember, it’s no one fault but your own that you have problems you do, especially if you do nothing to change them.
